Prescribe Outside

Research shows that spending time in nature is good for your health – mind, body, and spirit. The Park Prescriptions movement was born under the leadership of the National Park Service at the Golden Gate National Recreation Area in (2010?) and Red Bridge team members were part of that original effort. Now doctors around the world prescribe time in nature to help patients lead healthier, happier lives.

Prescribe Outside is an organization that facilitates such prescriptions. A partnership of Philadelphia nonprofits, government agencies, hospitals and community planners, Prescribe Outside exists to help physicians and families connect kids to safe, accessible, and convenient public green spaces. Red Bridge Group worked with Prescribe Outside to develop a Communications and Community Engagement Plan and a suite of communications tools to assist them as they offer Philadelphia youth and families a chance for better health outcomes linked to time spent in the great outdoors.
